30!!!!!!!!

A week before my birthday, my sweet momma called up Neil and said she wanted to give me a surprise party! It was convenient to do it the morning of Emma's birthday party, which was also her birthday. (Mine's 2 days later.) So, thank you Emma for sharing your special day with me! I was surprised. The only things that set me to wondering was 1. Neil made me do my hair and makeup before I went to Lubbock early that morning with Sabrina, (Thank you Neil!) and 2. Sabrina was taking FOREVER to get home. We headed down 82nd, and she turned around to get the guys coffee. Then when we hit the highway, she went 60-65 mph. I told her she could speed up, so she would. I would look away and she would slow down. She later told me she kept looking to see if I was looking. I was. Then when we got home, she went a different direction. They never take a different direction.

Anyway, when we got home, I walked inside and wondered why it was SOOOO quiet. I knew my parents and grandparents were there, but there was NO noise. I looked in the living room and my grandma was trying to scooch over, and I turned the corner and saw LOTS of people.


I was shocked!

Look familiar? We have that same look in our eyes! LOL!


Here I am beating up Sabrina with Emma's gift wrapping.


Everyone singing Happy Birthday to ME!

I never know where to look when the spot light is on me.


I even got to blow out 30 candles on my very own cake. I haven't done that in at least 13 years. (I think.)

I was shocked at all who showed. Thank you everyone for making me feel so special! I had one of the best days that day!

Turning 30 was no big deal to me. It didn't bother me at all. I am where I thought I would be, mom, wife. I am so very blessed to have the things I always wanted out of life!

Bbbbuuutttt, there was one tiny, little, itty bitty thing that bothered me. I GOT MY FIRST GRAY HAIR!! I very lovingly named it Neil, and yanked it out! It was very pretty. The silveriest, silver I have seen. But it's gone! And I dyed my hair very promtly!
